Sheet metal joggle dimensions.

Have your folks make an exemplar of the die s product using the correct material measure it and make a standard detail drawing of the exemplar and a superimposed layer or sheet showing how the finished features relate to the dimensions of the actual die. With this free online tool we quickly get the sheet metal bend deduction and therefore the sheet metal blank initial flat length from the finished part measurements. A joggle is an offset formed to provide for an overlap of a sheet or angle which is projecting in the same plane. Next month concludes with the pros and cons of hems jogs and forming tools.

Well this type of z shape can be produced by simply bending using a v bend block and then turning the component over and bending again to achieve. Once dimension x increases in the joggled formed in the sheet metal above the maximum shown in the table we have to put the 2 bends into the sheet separately. A joggle bend in sheet metal and a joggling tool joggling 5 also known as joggle bending is an offset bending process in which the two opposite bends are each less than 90 see following section for how bend angle is measured and are separated by a neutral web so that the offset in the usual case where the opposite bends are equal in. A joggle die is optimized for one material and one thickness and temper.

For sheet metal work over 140mm long please see our cnc z bend table. The inside joggle radii should be approximately the same as used for straight bending. Cells on the right will output the desired values. You only have to insert interior angle flange lengths k factor inside radius and material thickness.
